Actually addicted to the show now. It's cool to see trainees from various companies compete to debut in a project girl group. But the thing that struck me the most is how green a lot of them are skill-wise even though some of them have been training for years or have even debuted. Heck, even some idols who are stars aren't that great at singing. So this got me thinking, can you actually train somebody to become a good singer or does a person have to have the god given talent? I honestly believe you can't make a bad singer into a good singer. You can only really help somebody who has the potential realize what they need to do to bring out their talent in singing.
So when a lot of trainees go under years of training, what exactly are they training? I would figure it would be quick to decipher when a person has potential or not. Or does a person going through puberty make things complicated. I'm guessing a lot of the training is in regards to dancing, stage presence, etc. Basically to make them an entertainer moreso than a singer. Still mind blowing to me how many years some of them invest only to look really lackluster.
Anyway, does anybody else here watch the show? Just a few things: Really odd to see contestants that have already debuted. Starship's trainees are kind of rough to look at. Somi from JYP is going to be a star regardless and the show is just to promote her even more. Jeon Soyeon from Cube is actually one of the better talents on the show. She really amazed me. She's a "rapper" but during the first day of practice, she was able to sing a verse of the theme song better than the other "singers" on the show. I think she's going to be a star in the making since she's not only cute but also has natural charisma.
